“I cannot begin to explain how much of a life saver Darlene was for me today!! I live in Galt and have been driving all the way to the Greenhaven/Pocket area in the mornings before work (in Elk Grove) for daycare. During our meet and greet I got to see her very well kept home and her two adorable little girls who did very well with my big excited puppy. She sent pictures of Drake romping around her yard and playing with another dog who is currently being boarded with her. She was honest with me letting me know any behaviors that she had to correct and I’m thankful that she is knowledgeable in dog behavior. I will be using her on a weekly basis... especially since my dog didn’t want to leave when I came to pick him up! He was exhausted but was giving her kisses when I tried to tell him we were going home. Drake is happy so I’m happy.”
About: I have had dogs all of my life, all breeds and all ages. We are a family of 6, Mom, Dad, our 12 yr old daughter and our 3 fur babies. We dedicate our time to making them happy and live a full life. We have volunteered to foster puppies through the SPCA and pet sit for family as well. Our home is cozy with a good size backyard. All dogs would sleep indoors and have someone with them at all times since We work from home. We currently work from home so there will always be someone home with your pet. We can go for short or long walks a couple times per day and they have full access to to indoor and outdoor throughout the day. We have a fenced backyard and can separate rooms with baby gates if needed. There’s a doggy door in the garage to the backyard and two separate runners. We have a soon to be 5 yr old German shepherd, a 9 yr old rescue chihuahua and our old man a 10 yr old Shih Tzu. They are spayed/neutered and get along great with other dogs. You will have the option to have your pet sleep in the living room alongside our dogs or in a separate room.
About: What separates me from other pet sitters is experience and attention to detail. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with a wide range of needs, including seniors, high-energy dogs, and those who require extra structure, patience, or consistency. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, triggers, preferences, and training cues so care stays consistent with what they’re used to at home. I’m through about following care instructions, including feeding routines, medication, leash handling, and household rules. I pay close attention to behavior and body language and adjust care as needed to keep dogs comfortable and balanced. I also provide regular, thoughtful updates so owners always know how things are going. I provide care throughout the day to maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Mornings typically include walks and potty breaks, breakfast, and any required medications. Midday care includes walks, enrichment, playtime, or quiet companionship depending on your pet’s needs. In the afternoon and early evening, I focus on additional walks or outdoor time, scheduled feedings, and appropriate activity or downtime. Evenings include a final potty break, dinner and medications if needed, and a relaxed wind-down period. I follow established schedules closely and provide regular updates so owners always know how their pets are doing. I have a fenced in backyard for lots of running and play time & a climate controlled inside. Dogs are never left alone and always supervised.
“We had such a great experience with our dog sitter! They were caring and attentive They kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs Orca & Bruno were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. We truly appreciate all the love, care, and accommodations they provided and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable sitter.”
“Jennifer and her Family (human and fur) are a fantastic fit for Cleo. She is a high energy dog and comes home fully exhausted from her playdates with Jennifer, Rosey and their team! My husband told me it was the "perfect fit" for Cleo and us!”
About: I’ve been around dogs all my life. Friends have trusted me to walk, feed and play with them for many years. I recently lost two of my dogs, so my house feels empty and can sure use some tail wagging energy. I’m currently going to school full time, with many of my classes being online, I have plenty of time between classes to give your fur baby love. I have a fenced yard, with plenty of room to run around and play. I love to go on walks twice daily which can last about 30-55 minutes, your fur baby will love them too!
“Grace and Claudio were so great with my pup! I asked them kind of last minute and they worked with my schedule and took great care of him. They were also super understanding that my dog needed to be separate from theirs and had no issues accommodating. Would def recommend!”
About: I’ve had a dog since I was 10 he was older so I had to learn to be patient with him.Now with a newer puppy I had to find ways to train and help him not be so shy around other dogs As a college student I have my weekends open and I stay at school for holidays! During the week I have a lot of time in between class in order to take care of your loving pet! I always make sure to keep an eye on the pets when outside the back yard or just in the house just to make sure they’re okay. During walks when walking pass other dogs I try to walk across the street from other dog or stray off to the side and wait for the dog to pass us.
“Mariah took such good care of my pup! She had great communication and sent so many cute pictures throughout the day. Wrangler came home happy and tired in the best way I would definitely trust her watching him again (:”
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, I treat every pup like family. I specialize in both puppy training and gentle senior care, giving each dog the personalized attention they need. Whether it’s sticking to special diets, administering medication, or keeping routines consistent, I go above and beyond to make dogs feel at home and owners feel at ease. Dogs are part of my everyday life — my schedule naturally revolves around walks, feeding times, play sessions, and quiet rest breaks. I make sure every pup gets a balance of exercise, affection, and downtime, so they stay happy, healthy, and relaxed while in my care. In my home, dogs enjoy a safe, clean, and cozy environment with supervised play, comfy resting areas, and plenty of love. I maintain their usual routines, offer outdoor breaks and walks, and give each dog personalized care based on their personality. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their household rules closely and treat every space and pet as if they were my own.
“Paul was great with my pup! I was camping nearby his house and couldn’t take my dog to an excursion my family and I went to. Paul Sent me many pictures of walks and videos of my dog. I felt reassured he was safe while I was away for the day.”
About: I've taken care of all different sizes of dogs since I was 14! From King Charles Cavaliers, Border Collies, Golden Retrievers, to chihuahuas! I am home all day and able to take them on potty breaks as needed :) I'm currently on summer break from school so I am able to give your pets all the love and attention they may need! I'm not working over the summer so pet care will be my full priority! Our apartment complex has a fenced-dog park and we have a very sweet and friendly golden retriever puppy to give your pet company! We also live in a very safe neighborhood to take your pet on walks!
“Jawharrah has exceeded our expectations! Not only was she so kind to accept our short notice request, but she went above and beyond as a pet sitter. She kept an open line of communication and shared many pictures throughout the day. Seriously couldn’t have asked for a better sitter who showed so much care for our pup. Thank you again for everything.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Paicines commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, you can find sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. Many sitters can respond to messages in under an hour.
To find the fastest available match, message multiple sitters with a recent "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
